Flight Planning
Main Aerial uses Flight Planning and Evaluation Software (FPES) to create efficient plans and implement and manage the aerial imagery mission. Flight evaluation enables quality control at the earliest stages of the project. These systems integrate directly to the work flow to insure a successful image acquisition project from the very beginning. The FPES flight planning data is seamlessly coupled to flight operations and post processing.
- 2D or 3D photo flight mission planning and reporting
- Multiple Raster and Vector data import formats accepted
- Integrated to onboard Flight Control Management System
- Flexible data output including KML
- Seamless data flow from flight planning to photogrammetry
Digital Imagery Acquisition
Combining ADS80 sensor with the Commander 980 and 960 aircraft creates an exceptional collection platform. The high altitude and cruise speed of the 980 means the fastest response times anywhere in the Southwest. Coupling the aircraft speed with the ADS80 capture speed creates the most optimal environment for image capture. The Solid State Image Storage means fast downloading for image prep and imagery to the client quickly. Field back up verifications ensures client expectations are never in doubt.
Image Processing
ADS80 XPRO is specifically designed to convert raw image data into airborne images with high geometric precision and radiometric quality. Main Aerial takes full advantage of this technology, plus we extend the capability with our Image Prep control program to ensure all imagery delivered to our client is data rich with line to line consistency.
- Optimized Image Prep control program
- Eliminate downstream color / contrast issues
- Enhances Ortho production
